Going to the Crystal Palace.

This time in the room there was another type of orb, I placed my hand on it and released my Qi and pressure from my base while asking Artemix to ensure that no trace of my real base was demonstrated.

'Understood master'

And quickly appeared on the stone below the orb written: 7 stage of Qi condensation recorded, my age has already been recorded during the theory test.

And after this step I left the testing area the result of whether it was passed or if it remained as a possibility for a second entry to come out at the end of the day, the results will also be recorded on the so-called entry stone which is in front of the entry area until the Next year is when the new selection takes place.

And leaving the area I found my brothers next door and ran towards them.

"Brother! Sister!"

Arriving in front of them my sister caressed my head and asked with a smile on her face.

"How it was?"

"It was great, nothing was difficult and I believe I managed to do it well… even hiding it"

I spoke the end in a whisper.

And my sister smiled at me and praised me.

"Good"

And my brother next door spoke, pulling me into his arms, being clingy as usual.

"Well, how about we eat something?"

"Yes, let's take the little brother. We eat while we wait"

The sister agreed with her brother's suggestion.

And I spoke with my own intentions.

"How about the Palace of Crystal restaurant?"

"O...yes it's a good idea, it's become quite famous since 4 years ago.,...I've eaten there the food is quite delicious...although I don't know how you got a VIP card, Alex."

"Well I have my contacts" I said mysteriously and pulled both of my brothers by the arms to go to the restaurant.

…

And in a short time after walking silently in the city ignoring the gazes of the individuals on us, we arrived in front of the restaurant.

The restaurant had 3 floors, the first one was more open and had food in the form of a buffet where even ordinary mortals could eat. From the next floors onwards the food was a la carte. Since the second floor was focused on cultivators, where to enter they had to pay a small low-level stone and the 3rd floor where the entrance was a little more expensive and the floor itself was more luxurious divided into individual cabins, the ingredients also change in quality and even in techniques depending on always walking in an increasing movement.

The entire restaurant was made of a very beautiful crystal-like material with small green stones and tiles as if it were jade.

We entered and upon entering a waitress came to ask with a smile.

"How can I help you?"

But when she finished speaking and saw my face clearly she stopped, but I gave her a slight wink which made her adjust her expression so quickly and professionally that my brothers didn't notice anything.

My sister moved forward with elegant and luxurious steps and took out a card from her ring.

The card had the appearance of something like a diamond but obsidian-black in color, it was paper-thin and inscribed with formation runic symbols. It said: Black Diamond Card.

The maid who had already seen me smiled with elegance and high respect and spoke.

"Please come"

And we took her up the stairs to the 3rd floor. When we arrived we saw that the 3rd floor was gigantic and divided into a total of 12 rooms, each of a reasonable size, but as we entered the floor I looked to the side and frowned when I saw the face of a certain someone entering a room... Luckily he didn't seem to have noticed us and my brothers who were distracted didn't see him either.

Independently we entered one of the two black diamond rooms, which was a high quality room. On this floor, each room has insulation matrices and these two are of even better quality, made with higher quality materials.

And entering the room, we saw the place the tables were made of a stone similar to white marble while the chairs were made of a stone similar to black marble, but had soft cushions covering them.

We sat at the tables and the waitress handed us the menus. The menu was made of paper that was comfortable to touch and had beautiful writing.

"I will withdraw when you choose, please click on the little bell next to it and I will receive the notification."

She spoke, pointing to the small bell on the side, which was actually a simple spiritual artifact that allowed a slight spiritual signal to emanate to an artifact located in the center of this floor.

But before she left I winked slightly at her sending a message.

She didn't react and left smoothly.

And as soon as she left, I spoke to my brothers.

"Sister, brother, I'm going to the bathroom."

"OK"

They didn't react much despite feeling a slightly suspicious look from my strategist sister.

And leaving the room I found the waitress from before.

When I stood in front of her, she bowed respectfully and spoke.

"Teacher"

"Stand up"

She stood up at my command, and I moved on to my next line.

"Investigate who is the person in room four, and let me know."

"Understood I will inform you soon, but I believe I know who the person is"

I just nodded and entered the room again.

The Crystal Palace was a restaurant that I personally created 4 years ago, I made a bet with my grandfather and due to certain contributions I made to the family, with some simple techniques and pill formulas he gave me money to create this business.

The business uses some special recipes that I found in a book inside my palace, a book that is said to have been created by an ancient cultivator called Gourmet Bu Fang, said to be a best cook existing in many planes.

The business was successful with high-quality architecture and materials, with matrices to provide privacy in certain areas, and unique and delicious recipes. Today, not only this restaurant in the capital, but it is expanding with other branches to other cities in the kingdom and going to other kingdoms, of course money and other investment processes are needed, but it is working since I received a little investment from my grandfather not to mention the profitability it has been giving me.

And I created this business for 3 reasons, to earn "money"/cultivation resources, the second to serve as a large information network where different individuals would exchange information on the spot, after all, there is nothing better than conversations with food for information to be released and lost and 3 guarantee a certain influence depending on where I live in the future, this kingdom is extremely small in the entire continent, so small that it is even a little regrettable from what Artemix told me.

Independently, I entered the restaurant and picked up the menu to select my food while I helped my brothers select theirs.
